There is only one distributor/retailer for Millers products here in the states.

So an alternative would be this product, from a trusted company, which does not do any funny gumming up/sliming reactions like the popular Red Line red Water Wetter tends to do in some Dexcool-like coolant chemistries;

There’s also a product called No-Rosion now, which is a spin-off of the corrosion inhibitor additives used in industrial cooling systems. They also have an Aluminum friendly version with a suitably absurd name (Hyperkuhl) Both versions are compatible with glycol, and unlike water wetter (which is basically just a detergent with some minor additivies), it’s supposed to have a full complement of their corrosion inhibitors that can be used with pure water cooling systems. It is however not cheap ($50 for a 4-pack of pints, it seems they don’t sell single bottles, at least not directly

Interestingly, they also sell used coolant analysis services (similar to used oil analysis that some labs do)

Could you theoretically use the Mountune instructions?

Anyone know how the Mountune compares?
Everything is better than stock* In this area...some people have overheating issues with stock Radiator....Others dont. Its a mystery!

Sure... but if I'm spending that much money, I don't just want "better than stock"... I want the best! I live in the Midwest so I don't really encounter overheating much at all, but I plan on a) doing track days in the future, b) adding a tow hitch to facilitate motorcycle track days in the future, and c) going S280 in the future, so I see a radiator upgrade as an inevitability. But I don't want to buy one rad and later find out the other is bigger, or easier to install, or whatever else. So I'm doing my research now.
